Manchester United officially announced that it has renewed its contract with head coach Tanhag until June 2026.

 

Tanhag said: "I am very happy to have reached an agreement with the club to continue the cooperation. Looking back over the past two years, we can look back with pride on the two trophies we have won and the many improvements we have made compared to when I joined."

 

"However, we must also be aware that we still have a lot of hard work to do to reach the level that is expected of Manchester United, and that means challenging for the Premier League and Champions League titles."

 

"In my discussions with the club, we have found that our vision for achieving these goals is completely aligned and we are both deeply committed to embarking on this journey together."

 

Tanhag took over as Manchester United coach in July 2022 and led the team to win the English League Cup in the 2022-23 season and the English FA Cup in the 2023-24 season. However, Manchester United ranked only 8th in the league last season and will compete in the European League next season.
